Standing, on the edge of forever, (edge of the stage, the fans went on forever?)
At the start of whatever, (when they became famous)
Shouting love at the world. (all the love songs they had to sing)
Back then, we were like cavemen.( behind the scences they were fighting)
Where the thunder turns around (thrunder can mean anger and turning anger around to make it happiness)
they'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away.(blowing fans away with amazing music)
You know no one dies, in these love drowned eyes (referring to robbie going through a very tough time)
Through our love drowned eyes, we'll watch you sleep tonight (saying robbie wasnt the only one to get hurt and that from now on they will look after each other)
Although no one understood (they didnt understand each other at the time)
we were holding back the flood,(holding back emotions)
Learning how to dance the rain.(learning how to deal with problems in the group/learning to manage a band without a manager demanding everything)
We were holding back the flood
they said we'd never dance again (the media slatting the band)
Bleeding, but none of us leaving (all the hurt but no one leaving the band till robbie)
Watch your mouth son or you'll find yourself floating home (this one is tricky. it could be the fact that RW use to turn up to rehersals drunk and say some stupid stuff which caused him to be kicked out the band)
There was more of them than us ( there was more people from the media than there was in take that)
now they'll never dance again ( take that proved the media wrong by reforming and releasing a new album)
Now we'll never dance again ( take that is now a man band, they dont dance anymore like they did in the 90's plus GB hates dancing!)
basically i think the song is about their past and how the media lost. when you watch the music video, where they have a boat race, you will see the other team (media) win the race. but team TT just keep on rowing. i think this means the media won the battle (when TT broke up) but Take That won the war (reforming and proving everyone wrong.....
i think this song has many means.
